of people this will be romney's first one-on- one type debate. any clue on his approach to make him perhaps a little looser, but within that strict box of remaining presidential? a hard line to walk, perhaps. >> reporter: yeah, really is. there are a lot of people that are weighing in. and you can imagine that governor romney is getting all kinds of advice from all sides. apparently, his wife is the biggest factor in his life. and in his debate preparation. in an interview i just heard that his first thing, when he gets off stage, he takes his piece of paper and writes on there, dad, remembering his dad, who also ran for president. and the second thing he does, is find his wife in the audience, and have eye contact. they did it 20 times in the republican primary. and i saw it personally six times. he looks for affirmation. so i think that's a big factor for him, feeling comfortable. how he -- how aggressive he is going after the president on specific policies, i think will determine, you know, how this debate goes. >> we will all be watching. bre

most people think that romney won the debate. >> i will not reduce the share paid by high-income individuals. i know that you and your running mate keep saying that and i know it's popular thing to say with a lot of people but it is just not the case. i got five boys. i'm used to people saying something that is not always true but just keep on repeating it and ultimately hoping i will believe t that is not the case. i will not reduce the attacks paidby high-income americans. number three, i will not under any circumstances raise taxes on middle income families. >> four years ago when i stood on this stage, i said that i would cut taxes for middle class families. and that is exactly what i did. we cut taxes for middle class families by about $3600. the rope is because i believe that we do best when the middle class is doing well. and by giving them those tax cuts, they had a little more money in their pocket. so maybe they can buy a new car. they are certainly in a better position to weather the extraordinary recession we went through. they can buy a compute fore their kid going off to colleg

well, some snap polls overnight show mitt romney coming out of the debate on top. a cnn survey of people watching even had him winning by a more than 40-point margin, at the very least the former governor may have made the race much more competitive, but the question is will it last. you can argue that just by walking out on this stage mitt romney got a boost, appearing alongside the president, but while they warmly shook hands, romney was on the offensive. >> mr. president, you're entitled as a president to your own airplane and own house but not your own facts. >>reporter: despite that and despite the buildup, this was not the night full of zingers that many pundits had anticipated. instead it was a drilldown on a number of weighty domestic issues, the overall economy and healthcare, what mr. romney called obamacare. >> i use that term with all respect. >> i like it. >> good. >>reporter: while the president embraced the term obamacare, he shot back, accusing romney of making promises about healthcare and tax policy without providing specifics. >> at some point i
